Remote Head Exit Sign and Light Combos

Remote head combo exit signs combine three key safety functions in one scalable fixture: an illuminated LED EXIT legend, integrated emergency lamp heads, and extra battery capacity to power external remote emergency lighting heads. These UL 924 listed units are ideal for stairwells, corridors, mechanical rooms, and larger facilities where distributed egress lighting is required.

Unlike standard exit sign combos, remote-capable exit sign/light combos include oversized Ni-Cd or lithium-ion batteries to power both onboard lamps and multiple low-voltage remote heads for at least 90 minutes. This centralized design reduces fixture count, simplifies inspections, and maintains code-compliant illumination along the entire egress path.

Available in thermoplastic or steel housings, these units ship in single- or double-face configurations with field-selectable chevrons and red or green LED legends. Most models include universal hardware for wall, ceiling, or end mounting and support dual-voltage (120/277 VAC). Add self-testing combo diagnostics to automate monthly and annual function checks.

For outdoor or industrial applications, choose wet-location remote-capable combos with sealed heads and weather-resistant enclosures. See wet-location exit sign & emergency light combos for hose-down or exposed environments.

FAQs About Remote-Capable Exit Sign Combos

What is a remote head exit sign combo?

It's a fixture that includes an EXIT sign, emergency lights, and a battery powerful enough to support external remote lamps in additional areas.

How many remote heads can I add?

It depends on the unit’s battery wattage. Most models support 2–4 LED heads, but you must confirm voltage and VA compatibility.

Are these combos suitable for outdoor use?

Yes—look for models with wet-location or NEMA 4X ratings to withstand rain, humidity, and hose-down environments.

Do they require special wiring?

Remote heads connect via low-voltage wiring. Ensure wiring matches the unit’s output—typically 6V, 9.6V, or 12V DC.

Why choose a remote-capable unit instead of multiple fixtures?

It reduces battery maintenance, lowers installation costs, and simplifies inspection and testing—especially in large or multi-level buildings.
